Daniel Jones wasn’t sharp
Sounds the alarms!
Maybe it was the rain, maybe it was just an off night, but Jones, who’s had an up-and-down camp, was mostly down on Friday night. He was under constant pressure and he wasn’t helped by dropped passes, but he didn’t look sharp by any measure or to anyone’s eye.
Jones couldn’t get the offense in gear and during his five offensive series, he managed to lead the Giants to just a single field goal. Three of the other series ended in a punt and a fourth ended with a fumble.
Judge shared more positive sentiments with reporters, but there’s no way he’s going to be happy looking back over the film.
“We need to make sure that we give him some help as far as getting this out. Receivers need to do their job as far as taking advantage of opportunities right there,” Judge said. “But I thought Daniel was productive when he was in there. Obviously, there are things to clean up. This is like any other preseason game. We have to look at this very critically as a team, be very honest with our players, let them know where we’re at and where we have to go going forward.”
